Wallpaper - Group Sail Order

Our Group Sail Order wallpaper, created by Chris Paschke, captures a line of sailboats cutting across choppy water in a fluid, painterly composition. What we particularly like about this design is the balance between the light, upright sails and the expressive, steel blue sea beneath them. The artwork has a distinct watercolour-like character, with sketch-like contours and soft washes that give the impression of movement and open horizon without overwhelming the room. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper, it brings a calm maritime atmosphere to walls of any scale.

In the room

In a living room or dining space, we would place this design along a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizontal rhythm of the boats and water can stretch out naturally. The composition divides broadly into a deep blue lower section and a light, airy sky, which works especially well behind lower furniture like a sofa, low sideboard, or dining bench. Because the tall sails carry plenty of breathing room up top, it sits comfortably in rooms with standard ceiling heights as well as spaces with higher ceilings. In a tranquil bedroom or lake house retreat, installing this mural wallpaper behind the bed creates a serene focal point that anchors the room while keeping the upper visual field open and light.

Styling it

To keep the focus on the nautical artwork, we suggest pairing this wallpaper with relatively clean-lined, understated furnishings. Lighter or mid-toned warm woods help balance the cool blue tones of the water and add natural warmth to the space. Surrounding textiles in textured off-white, light grey, or unbleached tones echo the soft shades of the sails, allowing the visual rhythm of the boats to lead the room without competition from busy patterns.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is built around cool steel blue, soft denim tones, and crisp sail whites, offset by subtle grey linework and hints of pale sky. For adjacent walls and trim, soft off-whites, chalky greys, or muted bone tones create a seamless, cohesive backdrop that lets the artwork stand out. If you prefer a richer palette, deep navy or slate blue on nearby cabinetry, doors, or woodwork will pick up the deeper crests of the water and create a striking, tonal transition across the space.
